Removing physical volumes from a physical volume group
Only scratch tapes which do not contain any valid logical volumes can be removed,
unless the physical volumes have been reorganized prior to doing this (flag is set).
●
The form and detailed information are provided in the
section “Physical Volume Opera-
tions » Erase Physical Volumes” on page 226
The following information must be specified:
–
the VSN of the first physical volume
–
the physical volume group
–
the number of physical volumes
–
flag for switching on/off a preceding reorganization
The physical volumes are then removed from the CentricStor pool. They are no longer
used and can be removed from the library.
